I had this same question. There's only 4 cars shown when I select "view eligible cars": Eagle Speedster, Lotus 340R, Maserati Tipo 61 Birdcage, and Porsche 718 RS 60. But when enter the event There are 12 cars available (only 1 is from the 4 eligible cars) because they happen to be A class.
"View Eligible Cars" doesn't look at your garage, but at the Autoshow. It searches for cars that could be allowed to participate without any tune, as soon as you buy them.
Yeah, sometimes I'm able to find a Forza edition or exclusive car in my garage that didn't show up under Eligible cars. Which is nice, because I often have a tune handy for those.
Best way around it, I've found, if you don't like the autoshow options available, check the "theme" of the race, and see if you have any cars that match. Sometimes it's one or two different divisions, or manufacturers, which makes it easy. Then go to your garage, check that division or manufacturer, and see if you have a non-autoshow car that matches. Make sure it's tuned to the right class, and then try to start a championship with it.
This one's a bit harder, since it seems to be "convertibles" or something somewhat vaguely defined. I just used the Eagle, since I bought it for a championship last fall that I ended up not doing, and hadn't used it since. I figured I should get some use out of it.
